The market for celebrity oddities on eBay is a booming one, especially if a new listing is any evidence.
Over the years you’ve been able to find fantastic collector’s items such as Britney Spears’ chewed gum, Brangelina’s breath in a jar, and a used tissue from Scarlett Johansson. Now eBay user dancingdave04 is trying to peddle something else special: rainwater from Paisley Park the day that Prince died.

For a cool $100, you can buy water with slightly more acidic content than what comes out of your tap all because it fell on Prince’s house. It did rain in Minneapolis last Thursday when Prince passed away (though the rain was not purple, sadly). Of course good luck proving that what’s in the jar is actually rainwater from Paisley Park itself.
However, if this somehow interests you, bidding closes in two days so hurry! If we were you, we’d suggest putting some purple color dye in there, claiming that it was in fact purple rain and then re-posting it on eBay for $1,000.
